I like it. Simple, yet still effective. It does have a "this is my land" feeling but then that's probably because you told us it was your land.

Great original shot mate,
there is something in this that brings me back to the core of what I want to impart with my shots, The less is more approach.
Well done
Sean

I may have got the bright piece of something in the bottom left of the shot away from the composition and had a look in a sepia tone to see if I could make it look a bit droughtish, just an idea though
You have me thinking

Excellent shot. Did you place the grass in front of the post or was it already there?

firstyly: lovely shot! I like how the grass is accented against the rough dark texture of the post, then the post isolated by your DOF!
i find the two white (pipes?) to the left of the post a little distracting...
you might want to also try shooting the same shot or similar at a different time of the day, where I am we also have posts etc which give a great country feel, and when the sun is starting to go down, basks them in a glorious golden orange warm glow... my favoured time for shooting!
keep up the great work!

This I really like, simple country feel... Would be keen to see a version with the backround "less green" to give a feeling of a harsher dry environment... Like simple country scenes like this...
Cheers

Errr... TC? Not red enough, not dry enough (only 2 days of rain this year) and not rocky enough. Nice pic though.
Cheers
